Scope update

This PR is now a small fix in the existing Codex configuration/sync flow. It replaces the previous local-CA interception/watcher stack; none of that stack is included in the current diff.

The remaining useful problem is explicit reload after a configuration change: ocx sync --restart-codex previously entered its restart handler only after a catalog/cache write. A successful config.toml change without either write could therefore leave an already-running client using its previous configuration.

Changes

  • Record configChanged only after the configuration transaction commits, comparing admitted original bytes with the final committed plan. Native v1 reconciliation and initially absent files are included.
  • Never publish a true receipt for validate-only, preserved external-provider ownership, policy skips, refusals or compensated failures. Identical committed bytes are a no-op.
  • Propagate the receipt through sync and honor an explicitly requested desktop/app-server restart for a successful configuration-only change.
  • Preserve default startup/sync behavior: no new automatic client restart. Preserve existing catalog/cache-written handling, including a later injection failure.
  • Update CLI help, generated capability references and structure documentation.

This does not promise first-time hot takeover of an already-open App, automatic restart when the gateway starts, quota-admission changes, PAC failover or full-traffic recovery. The old watcher and CA design are no longer proposed by this PR.

Review status

Independent review of this narrowed patch completed without a blocking finding. All 15 existing inline review threads are resolved; prior interception-specific findings do not describe the current diff. CodeRabbit completed a requested review of all 14 files at head 713e3c3 on 2026-10-15 and reported no actionable comments; its commit status is success. Automatic reviews remain paused. The long-lived walkthrough still contains historical architecture/docstring sections from the superseded scope, which are not new findings on this patch. The three functional GitHub Actions runs currently require upstream approval before jobs can start. Ready for review does not mean CI-passed or merge-approved.

Validation

Based on dev 7640a942b35044c974e534b84d5a8049f4a8ae9a. Published tree matches the locally tested tree 5d25b1bf2fefccc3c5480748f6a489b3f4e0f35b.

  • Regression-first CLI check: 76 passed / 1 failed before implementation; 77 passed afterwards.
  • Official test wrapper, seven related files: 271 passed, 4 skipped, 0 failed; 1709 assertions.
  • Covers actual configuration writes, idempotence, v1-only changes, initial file creation, post-callback coordinator failure with exact rollback, sync propagation and the existing catalog/cache protections.
  • Source typecheck, structure SSOT, privacy scan and diff whitespace check passed.
  • Tests ran in an unprivileged isolated Linux user/mount namespace with a private /tmp satisfying the existing ownership rules; production guards and host permissions were unchanged.
  • Skips: one Windows-only real process-enumeration case and three unreadable-preimage permission cases in namespace uid 0.
  • Full repository suite and actual macOS Desktop behavior have not been validated for this patch. The scoped suite is the documented local full-suite exception; remote checks must still be evaluated.

Review readiness checklist

  • Required local validation passed; commands, results, and any full-suite exception are documented.
  • I pushed my PR to a recent dev commit (at most 10 behind; a maintainer may still ask for the exact tip before merge).
  • I resolved all correct Codex and CodeRabbit findings.
  • My PR is ready for review.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • sync --restart-codex can now restart the requested Codex app-server or desktop-app scope after a successful configuration change, even when no catalog or cache write occurred.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Configuration-only restarts are limited to committed changes; preflight checks, skipped writes, and failed or compensated operations do not trigger them.
    • Catalog and cache writes continue to trigger restart handling independently of sync success.

📝 Walkthrough

Codex injection and sync results now report committed configuration-byte changes. When sync succeeds and a restart scope is explicitly requested, the CLI handles that scope if the configuration changed. Catalog and cache writes remain independent restart triggers.

Changes: Codex Configuration-Change Restart

Layer / File(s) Summary
Configuration change reporting
src/codex/inject.ts, src/codex/sync.ts, structure/config.md, tests/codex-integration/*
Injection compares committed configuration content with the original content and reports configChanged after successful writes. Sync propagates the signal. Integration tests cover changed and unchanged configurations, preflight, skipped injection, and failures.
Requested restart handling
src/cli/dispatch.ts, tests/cli/cli-dispatch.test.ts, src/cli/registry.ts, src/cli/capabilities-base.ts, skills/ocx/references/*, structure/cli-management.md
An explicitly requested restart scope is handled after successful sync when configChanged is true. Catalog and cache writes remain independent triggers. CLI descriptions and documentation state the restart conditions, and dispatch tests cover the requested scope and sync outcomes.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to b185b

The feature is opt-in and restricted to local macOS traffic, which limits exposure. However, automatic relaunch does not consistently preserve verified app identity, listener ownership is checked through an unauthenticated response, and repeated lifecycle starts could lose cleanup ownership. These are bounded security-control concerns rather than evidence of remote compromise or credential theft.

Retained concerns

  • Medium · security · observed: The added intercept-launch delegation does not bind execution to the bundle the CLI verified: the generated script quits and opens ChatGPT by display name. The independent watcher also omits bundle signature and ownership validation. This weakens the executable-selection boundary and can select a different local app; exploitation requires local app-registration or bundle influence, and no privilege escalation is established.
  • Low · security · inferred: The new routing guard authenticates neither the listener certificate nor process ownership: it accepts a public service identifier over unverified TLS. A local process that acquires the expected port can satisfy this guard and induce routing or startup disruption. The app's separate certificate validation limits the outcome; forged identity alone does not prove access to cookies or messages.
  • Medium · reliability · inferred: The new listener lifecycle retains only the latest start promise. If start is repeated while an earlier listener exists, a disabled request or failed replacement can overwrite the only cleanup handle, leaving the earlier TLS interceptor running after stop. The visible owning component forwards start calls without enforcing a single-start invariant; whether production execution repeats them remains unresolved.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The direct interception scope is the locally routed app's chatgpt.com traffic and active account, not a remotely bound service. Shared certificate authority use couples ChatGPT and existing Claude interception: compromise of that key can affect clients trusting it beyond the selected rewritten endpoints. This is inherited authority with a new consumer, not evidence that the PR newly introduced insecure key storage.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • inferred — A local port-squatting process can forge the listener identity response and pass the new routing guard without possessing the intended certificate. It can induce a fresh-app restart toward its port, but app certificate validation remains a separate barrier; credential theft is not established by this path.
  • inferred — Local influence over name-based app resolution can break the relationship between the CLI-verified bundle and the bundle actually launched. The watcher has no corresponding signature gate. The demonstrated issue is weakened execution identity, not proven additional privileges or account access.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — Remote exposure is constrained by loopback-only binding. Production HTTP and WebSocket routing targets ChatGPT; the WebSocket TLS connection sets chatgpt.com as its server name without disabling certificate verification. Local listener identity probes, in contrast, explicitly bypass TLS verification.
  • observed — The existing CA store writes private keys with mode 0600 inside a directory created with mode 0700. Publication is lifecycle-locked, persisted certificate/key pairs are validated before reuse, and startup retries lock contention. These constrain other-user access and concurrent publication but do not isolate the key from same-user processes.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • inferred — Awaiting startup before shutdown preserves cleanup ordering for one start. Repetition is not similarly protected: replacing the pending promise can detach a previously started TLS listener from cleanup ownership. Establishing a single-start deployment contract or preserving every active handle is necessary to resolve this conditional containment concern.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Carry the verified bundle path through delegated relaunch, and apply equivalent bundle identity checks before watcher-driven execution.
  • proposed — Authenticate readiness against the expected local authority and chatgpt.com server identity instead of treating a public service string as listener ownership. Keep app-side TLS validation as a separate control.
  • proposed — Enforce a single-start lifecycle or serialize replacement so previous and partially started listener generations remain owned until stopped.

@coderabbitai review

Rebased onto #6365 (the maintainer's intercept split) since #5947 no longer exists as a unit. The diff against #6365's head is one commit: the readiness marker (chatgpt-unblock.ready) as a second launchd WatchPaths entry, the five-minute age guard in watch mode, and the tests and translated guide text. Carried from the pre-split branch and kept: pgrep -a app lookup, bash -n before launchd loads the script, and the shim env through the shared launch script.

440-441: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

plistUpToDate still compares against a plist with one watch path.

A previous review flagged this mismatch, and the author marked it fixed in b8f5949da. The current file still contains the old code:

  • Line 394: installChatgptUnblockWatcher writes the plist with [paths.lockPath, paths.readyPath].
  • Line 441: chatgptUnblockWatcherStatus builds the expected plist with paths.lockPath only.

The expected text has no <string>…/chatgpt-unblock.ready</string> entry. The strict === comparison therefore returns false for every fresh install. Today printInterceptStatus in src/cli/chatgpt-command.ts does not read plistUpToDate, so users see no wrong output yet. The exported field still reports the wrong value. A later "plist outdated; reinstall" line would tell every correctly installed user to reinstall.

Put the watch-path list in one helper and use that helper at both sites. Then add a test that asserts plistUpToDate: true after an install. The current status function has no plistPath seam, so either add one or compare against buildChatgptUnblockWatcherPlist directly.

🐛 Proposed fix
   const plistUpToDate = plistInstalled
-    && readFileSync(paths.plistPath, "utf8") === buildChatgptUnblockWatcherPlist(paths.scriptPath, paths.lockPath, paths.errPath);
+    && readFileSync(paths.plistPath, "utf8") === buildChatgptUnblockWatcherPlist(paths.scriptPath, [paths.lockPath, paths.readyPath], paths.errPath);

Review comments at @src/cli/chatgpt-command.ts:
- Around line 192-194: Update the watcher script invoked by
launchChatgptWithRule to stop when opening ChatGPT fails, before printing the
success message; retain the result.ok check in the CLI branch so the launch
failure returns a nonzero exit status.
- Around line 139-140: Use inspectChatgptCaTrust to require trusted CA state
before installing the watcher and recheck trust before any automatic ChatGPT
relaunch, so removing trust leaves the app untouched. Apply the same trust
prerequisite to the explicit intercept launch alongside the existing intercept
and runtimeRole checks.
- Line 192: Update the intercept call to launchChatgptWithRule to pass the
discovered install.root bundle path, then use that path in both open calls
within the launch script so both launches target the bundle selected during
discovery.

Review comments at @structure/clients/chatgpt-desktop.md:
- Around line 106-113: Update the watcher description around SingletonLock to
include monitoring the `chatgpt-unblock.ready` marker. State that watch mode
restarts apps without launch switches only when they are no more than five
minutes old, with missing or unparseable age treated as fresh; clarify that
explicit CLI launches are not age-limited.

lcxhh521 added a commit to lcxhh521/opencodex that referenced this pull request Oct 4, 2026
The app-server shim reached dev through lidge-jun#6361 and the send-unblock
intercept is now lidge-jun#6365, with the ready-marker watcher on top in lidge-jun#6381.
This branch takes that tree (dev included) and adds the one part that
is still only here: PAC fallback.

- entry-proxy.ts and pac.ts as before; runtime.ts binds the CONNECT
  entry and rewrites chatgpt-unblock.pac at every start, before the
  readiness marker, and releases both listeners on failure.
- The launch watcher gains the PAC switch, the entry probe and PAC-aware
  restore on top of lidge-jun#6381's script; ocx chatgpt launch, install-watcher
  and status pass and report the entry port.
- chatgptDesktop.pacFallback joins the zod-only schema and the type.
- The old app-server shim copy and the pre-lidge-jun#6365 intercept code from
  this branch are dropped in favour of dev's and lidge-jun#6365's.
- PAC tests move to tests/clients/desktop-unblock-*; the guide and the
  structure doc describe PAC fallback.

Owner

Merge-manager pass: this branch no longer merges cleanly into dev (checked against 8eb1fc3de3 with git merge-tree). Conflicting files:

  • structure/INDEX.md — generated: take dev's copy, then run bun run structure:index
  • structure/config.md

Please rebase onto the latest dev, resolve these, and rerun bun run typecheck, bun run structure:check and the focused tests before pushing. The review state is otherwise unchanged by this note.

Before rebasing the watcher, I want to settle its replacement contract after the local-CA decision on #6365.

The goal is still the original Desktop workflow: automatic setup regardless of whether the app or OpenCodex starts first, general-proxy compatibility, and no forced interruption of an active session. A shim-only watcher is not yet evidence of equivalent coverage: the new build-specific report in #6196 says the composer gate never crosses the app-server pipe. I have not reproduced that report, and its renderer modification is not a supported integration proposal.

The public modelProvider/capabilities/read response currently contains only imageGeneration and webSearch, not send eligibility (source at 6fbfc352).

Is there an accepted, supported Desktop integration/build for late-start attachment or route refresh, with send admission scoped to the selected provider? If this needs a Desktop-side change, can we agree on upstream coordination and the acceptance boundary here? I would want both startup orders, repeated starts, service recovery, and an existing session to pass without silently losing history/plugin/voice coverage. Rebasing the rejected intercept or merely detecting a live listener would not establish that result.

A concrete candidate is to separate the two owners: OpenCodex keeps the provider configuration and service lifecycle idempotent, with a single owner and generation-bound readiness; Desktop evaluates admission for that selected provider while retaining its native signed-in account for other services. If Desktop exposes a supported, versioned route-refresh interface, startup/reconnect requests could be coalesced and stale generations discarded without restarting an active session. This is a proposed integration contract, not an API I have verified exists. Could this be the accepted direction, with the Desktop dependency coordinated upstream?
